The only thing we know about death is the moment when the whole fear construct falls away and then rises again and the shock of me-ness occurs. If we really pay attention to it, we will see that the me is fear.
This moment and the death process are the same. You will always meet death here. Here is always the opportunity to surrender and to experience something that you don't know about. The relief of death is the relief from living in fear, the relief from the burden of the known. That is available here. Right now. And it will always be. And the one opportunity to take the one action that you can take will always be here and now. That is to surrender to what is.
